x86/kexec: Add comments around swap_pages() assembly to improve readability

Browse source

The current assembly around swap_pages() in the relocate_kernel() takes
some time to follow because the use of registers can be easily lost when
the line of assembly goes long.  Add a couple of comments to clarify the
code around swap_pages() to improve readability.
